HC Deb 28 April 1967 vol 745 c368W
Mr. Edward M. Taylor

asked the Secretary of State for Scotland if he will indicate the percentage change at constant prices in the value of road projects completed in the years 1964 and 1966.

Mr. Ross

This comparison could not be made without a large-scale investigation requiring disproportionate effort in analysing the cost of particular schemes. Such an exercise would divert Scottish Office staff from more important work.
